Plenty of golfing options available at Wright-Patt

- By Jovoné Lewis

Wright-Patterson Air Force Base has two golf courses: Prairie Trace and Twin Base.

Prairie Trace golf course, the original golf course at Wright-Patterson, has been a part of the base since 1948. It features two courses – an 18-hole west course and a 9-hole east course – open to military and civilian personnel and their guests. While the courses are relatively straight forward, strategica­lly placed trees provide added challenge, and accurate tee shots are needed to avoid tall, thick rough.

Prairie Trace golf course is open to all active-duty military, retired military, reservists, civilian employees, family members and guests.

In addition to the courses, Prairie Trace also boasts a driving range and three practice putting greens as well as a golf shop.

For the serious golfer, a country club membership covers all green fees and cart fees, allowing guests to play as much as they want. For the golfing family, the golf course offers a family package at a great value, which covers green fees for all dependents, up to six people.

A full-service grill and bar are also on site for those who need a bite to eat.

Twin Base golf course, open since 1964, is located off base along State Route 444 and features an 18-hole course.

In addition, Twin Base also boasts a driving range and three practice greens as well as a golf shop, a full-service grill and the Jones Room Ballroom, a location for private functions.

Twin Base golf course is open to active-duty military, retired military, reservists, civilian employees, family members and guests.

Golf carts and clubs are available to rent for players’ convenienc­e at both Twin Base and Prairie Trace. Rank-based games and membership prices are also available.

Wright-Patterson golf courses currently offer leagues, family and couples golf and specials on golf accessorie­s.
